Grants and Funding

Council's Community Partnership Grants Round Two for 2022/23 have now closed.

Council's Community Partnership Grants Program is designed to help build our region by giving community groups a funding source to undertake new or growing initiatives, projects, or events that benefit the Southern Grampians Shire.

Does your community group have a project that needs a little extra funding support to help get it off the ground? The Community Partnership Grants Program could be for you.

Grants will be considered for initiatives by eligible community groups that meet the objectives of the Southern Grampians Shire Council Community Partnership Grants Policy.

Community Partnership Grants Policy

Applications will be evaluated and assessed against the criteria contained in the Southern Grampians Shire Council Community Partnership Grants program guidelines. The guidelines provide valuable information that will assist you in understanding Council's grant program.
